botsplain 

Botsplaining is similar to mansplaining, except that the actor in this case is an AI chatbot. While attempting to use the tool to explore unusual ideas and concepts, the bot will continuously interrupt the conversation in order to condescendingly interject comments such as "it is crucial to understand that diverse viewpoints exist" as if you were clearly such a dolt that you didn't understand that talking about one viewpoint does not amount to forgetting that other viewpoints exist.
Yesterday, it was botsplained to me by ChatGPT that diversity exists in the world.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
